Poison ivy failures

 On my walks in the woods I have to pick up branches from the trails, sometimes having to kneel to cut thru them. I picked up some poison ivy on my right inner wrist and my right knee. I very seldom ever kneel on my left knee, almost impossible to get it to a kneeling position with the spasticity of my ankle.

Applying hydocortisone requires squirting it onto the top of my left hand, pulling my right sleeve up with my teeth, and then rubbing my right wrist over the cream on my left hand.  Luckily it is not weeping.  My left hand is pretty much useless for anything at all. My occupational therapist at three weeks gave me my prediction for recovery of that hand.   'According to research, non-use at three weeks likely means it will never recover.' And she was an excellent occupational therapist. Will have to look into mirror therapy now.

With a useless left hand it is impossible to take a picture of my right wrist.
